Do not do it! You cannot control some very important features of IPX without
sysctl! Anyway below is patch, Alan please apply (although I must say that
this Makefile changed a bit my opinion on how obj-y and obj-m works...).

As for your other reports - No1 is fixed in Alan tree and patch is flying somewhere
around, and No2 looks like that your semaphore.h is corrupted. For parport
problems in No4, you have broken compiler or you changed some options in the
middle of compilation.

pprop broadcasting? 8) I was about to make a patch for this where it would be
possible to get rid of the sysctl stuff if the user choose not to have
it...

PS.: Next patch will have the routing sysctl 8)

[info]

Petr, greatest  thanks!!! Now I try to aplly patch.... and will
report after results.

By the way, I thung that it is a good idea - to modify
xconfig/meniconfig script  in manner to make disable ipx if sysctl
setted off - like in many other cross-dependance options. 

You know better than I who can do it.

Repeating 2.4.3 compile error with ipx makefile patch

................

Petr, first of all I save text of patch you sent me to file
"ipx-makefile.patch" in /usr/src and try to patch.
Result:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
[root@sh src]# patch -p0 < ipx-makefile.patch
patching file linux/net/ipx/Makefile
patch: **** malformed patch at line 6: export-objs = af_ipx.o af_spx.o
        
[root@sh src]#   
--------------------------------------------

So I  try to patched linux/net/ipx/Makefile manually with you text.
Resulting Makefile:

_______________________________________________________
#
# Makefile for the Linux IPX layer.
#
# Note! Dependencies are done automagically by 'make dep', which also
# removes any old dependencies. DON'T put your own dependencies here
# unless it's something special (ie not a .c file).
#
# Note 2! The CFLAGS definition is now in the main makefile...

# We only get in/to here if CONFIG_IPX = 'y' or 'm'

O_TARGET := ipx.o

export-objs = af_ipx.o af_spx.o

obj-y	:= af_ipx.o sysctl_net_ipx.o

ifeq ($(CONFIG_IPX),m)
  obj-m += $(O_TARGET)
endif

obj-$(CONFIG_SPX) += af_spx.o

include $(TOPDIR)/Rules.make

tar:
		tar -cvf /dev/f1 .
________________________________
Then try to compile
Result - the same error.

Yes. This error is already fixed in 2.4.3-ac4, as I already wrote. Use newer
kernel or compile IPX as module. I believe that it is fixed in 2.4.4-pre2 
too. Patch I sent fixed compilation with disabled CONFIG_SYSCTL. As
I use zerocopy patches from Alan tree, I cannot create tested patch
for Linus tree (and I try to avoid creation of untested patches)...
